More Angel Paintings

I was lucky enough to go to a workshop with J. Kirk Richards. It was awesome, and I learned so much! I worked on a large painting of angels ministering to children. Every painting presents its own challenges and rewards. The challenge for me with this painting (as with so many of my paintings right now) is deciding how much detail to include. I want this painting to be soft and symbolic, but sometimes when I leave it soft and abstract it doesn’t look finished. I still don’t think it is finished, but I like it.

I’ve also been working on these three little angels. Each one is 4″x4″. I think the turquoise background is fun. I’m going to keep experimenting with that.
